in reply to Damian Conway Talk from July 31, 2001

reading the perl6.pdf file made me realize that if the release of perl 6 is not accompanied by the publication of up-to-date camel and llama books, I'm screwed.

    Damian and I talked about that last night after his talk. We both agree that only about 10% of the llama will change, and you can be assured that I'm in communication with my O'Reilly editor about timing that properly.

    The small end of Perl still stays pretty much the same. It's the advanced stuff that gets cooler. If anything, more of the things that you're likely to type will just work right.
